Sutcliffe & Co Insurance Brokers are celebrating the outstanding achievement of Sue Smith at their Head Office in Worcester with 25 years’ service and being promoted to Premier Team Manager.
The award-winning professional service by Sutcliffe & Co wouldn’t be possible if not for their exceptional team, with long service providing a backbone to building long standing client relationships. Sue has been a leading example of how dedication to service can result in career progression in an ever changing landscape of insurance and risk management.
Sue Smith, explains, “I can’t quite believe I’ve being working at Sutcliffe & Co for 25 years’ as time has really flown by. Looking back the business has changed dramatically over the years. After only my second ever job interview with Richard Sutcliffe, I joined Sutcliffe & Co in June 1999 along with the other “secretaries” – having spent time in my last job on a PC, I was then introduced to my typewriter – you can imagine my amusement. I was also re-introduced to Tippex and carbon paper!”
Sue continues “I worked alongside my colleagues in Sansome Walk from 1999 until we moved to our current premises in 2005, at which point computers were introduced. Sadly, Richard Sutcliffe passed away Christmas 2017, he was much loved by everyone who knew him – Duncan Sutcliffe, his son, took over and has continued to run the company with the same family values as Richard did, hence I have made life-long friends here and the camaraderie only reinforces these values.”
“I have now spent nearly half my life working at Sutcliffe & Co and I can’t imagine working anywhere else – it’s very much a working family atmosphere where everyone looks out for everyone else and it is a pleasure to work for such a friendly, caring and professional organisation.”
Duncan Sutcliffe, Managing Director at Sutcliffe & Co Insurance Brokers says, “Long service is one of many things that makes Sutcliffe & Co what it is today. It gives me much pride to congratulate Sue not only on her 25 years’ of service but also her promotion to Premier Team Manager too. Thank you for all your hard work over the years and your exceptional dedication to our staff and clients”.
